Hannah @ 1 Year 5 Months!

Posted on 5 Nov 20105 Nov 2010   by CY

Our little one at all of 1 Year 5 Months. Development stages in the last month include her being able to recognize more words – including ‘nose’ and ‘ear’ to which she’d readily point to where it is – and

Hannah @ Sweet Spring

Posted on 18 Sep 20103 Apr 2018   by CY

We were disappointed when we went to Sweet Spring last weekend. There was some kind of power trip at the restaurant, so diners had to be turned away until power was restored. This Saturday morning Sweet Spring was opened for

Hannah @ Burger King

Posted on 7 Sep 20103 Apr 2018   by CY

Whenever we’re at Compass Point for dinner, it’s usually going to be one of the same old places unless the desire to splurge comes up. The mall has quite a few fastfood to midrange dining places and the ubiquitous Kopitiam.

Re-entering the kitchen: Nikujaga

Posted on 24 Jul 2010   by Ling

I felt like Linguini in Ratatouille when trying to cook Hannah’s and our dinner simultaneously tonight. The last thing I wanted was a messy kitchen with injuries and broken porcelain wares. I was browsing through the Internet for easy recipes

Re-entering the kitchen: Watercress Pork Ribs Soup

Posted on 18 Jul 201011 Aug 2010   by Ling

Hannah has better food while at her nanny’s place. Her nanny is a Cantonese and as many of us know, this dialect group is particular about their soup. Every meal must have a soup dish. I just got a recipe

Breakfast at Blues

Posted on 26 Jun 20101 Jul 2010   by CY

When breakfasts are included as part of your hotel stay, you’d usually marvel and get very impressed with the range of items. There’s also the convenience of having long breakfast periods; so if you decide to sleep later on the

How Not to Kill Yourself (with Food)

Posted on 26 Jun 201026 Jun 2010   by CY

Thankfully, Matt and myself weren’t always gouging ourselves with food. On most occasions – the lunches at least anyway – we ate more modestly. The first night I hooked up with Matt was on Thursday last week – this was

How to kill yourself (with food)

Posted on 23 Jun 201023 Jun 2010   by CY

One thing I’ve always wondered is how Matt – our Ang Mo bud – can manage all the food he takes in, and still lose weight. Now that I get to dine with him in cuisine and food types he’s

Hannah @ Yoshinoya

Posted on 16 May 201016 May 2010   by CY

There are a lot of places to dine at Compass Point. However,  after taking into account the time in which we usually drive there for brunches + Ling having aversions to the food court on level 4, in practice, our

Cooking with the Slow Cooker

Posted on 21 Mar 201021 Mar 2010   by Ling

One of the challenges I faced when Hannah started on solid food was time management. Life began to feel quite hurried at home when cooking was part of the daily routine. Gosh, and more washing too! Since I didn’t start

Day 6: Footballer Seafood

Posted on 8 Mar 20109 Mar 2010   by CY

Matt isn’t a stranger to seafood here in Singapore: there’s an entry he wrote for our blog here more than three years ago tucking into Jumbo Seafood, with photographic evidence to boot. This time round, Matt was taken to seafood

Posted on 27 Feb 201028 Feb 2010   by CY
